No, workers don't own anything in Socialist States. In Socialism, it is the State that owns everything and obligate the workers to work. You cannot create any business in Socialist states due the nature of the abolition of private property. You cannot choose what to work, it's the State who assign you that.

They managed capital in the practice, they also traded with other countries and let farmers do commerce due the war with them. but that was their strategy (on Russia) but in the rest of the socialist states they didn't. There's so much books written about this topic you can never end to find contradictions in their rules. Of course the elite lived like the best capitalists.
